In 1911, illustrator Charles Sykes was commissioned to create a mascot for the hood of Rolls - Royce cars. He designed the "Sprit of Ecstasy", which represents a spirit which has just alighted on the car to enjoy the delight of traveling at speed. Sykes wanted to depict something beautiful and chose the secretary of a friend as a model to design this symbol of beauty. Over time some people referred to the "Sprit of Ecstasy" as the "Spirit of Speed, The Flying Lady or the Silver Lady".
